Dr. George Zografi

Dr. George Zografi is currently professor emeritus of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the UW- Madison. He is a prominent educator and researcher, and served as Dean of the School of Pharmacy from 1975-1980.

Dr. Zografi was a key advocate for the re-establishment of the STATION based on his passion for ensuring the continued effective application of the physical sciences and pharmaceutics to the development of drug products, at a time when industry must fill pharmaceutical development positions with chemists and engineers due to the lack of available pharmacy-trained scientists.
